The Wisconsin Concrete Park in Phillips, WI, is a unique outdoor museum showcasing 237 embellished concrete and mixed media sculptures created by Fred Smith, a retired lumberjack and self-taught artist and musician, between 1948 and 1964. This historical panorama of life-size and larger-than-life sculptures depicts a blend of local, regional, and national history, along with elements of local lore and Smith's vivid imagination.
Managed by the Friends of Fred Smith, Inc., a non-profit organization, the mission of the Wisconsin Concrete Park is to preserve and develop this masterwork of 20th-century vernacular art environments as a public educational and cultural facility. Visitors can explore the sculptures, landscape, and the Historic Smith Family House, immersing themselves in a landscape where history, people, events, and animals intertwine to create a truly unique experience.
